Winnipeg’s Trusted Maternity & Newborn Photographer

Choosing your photographer is a deeply personal decision. You’re not just hiring someone with a camera — you’re trusting them to capture some of the most precious moments of your life. At Karen Hunter Photography, I bring over two decades of experience, artistry, and heartfelt care to every maternity and newborn session.

When you step into my studio, you can feel confident knowing that your baby — and your memories — are in the best possible hands.

1. Experience You Can Trust

With more than 20 years of professional photography experience, I’ve refined every detail of the portrait process. My expertise in lighting, composition, and newborn safety ensures each image is beautifully crafted and every moment is handled with care.

Your baby’s comfort and safety are always my first priority. Every pose, wrap, and setup is guided by years of training in safe newborn handling and posing techniques, so you can simply relax and enjoy your session.

2. A Calm, Caring Environment

As a mother and photographer, I understand how important it is to feel comfortable and supported. My studio near Winnipeg is designed to be a peaceful, welcoming space — warm, quiet, and fully stocked with everything you need.

From maternity gowns and newborn props to soft music and gentle guidance, my goal is to create a session experience that feels natural, relaxing, and full of joy.

3. Timeless, Artistic Portraits

My photography style blends fine-art composition with soft, natural tones — creating images that feel classic, elegant, and emotionally authentic. Whether you prefer a bright, airy look or rich, moody tones, every session is custom-styled to reflect your family’s personality and aesthetic.

Each image is professionally edited and retouched to maintain your natural beauty and your baby’s delicate features — never overdone, always timeless.

From planning your wardrobe to designing your finished artwork, I take care of every detail so your experience is effortless and enjoyable.

• Pre-session consultation to plan colours, themes, and wardrobe
